No Butter Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe

Step 1

Add room temperature cream cheese, lemon juice, cornstarch, salt, and whipping cream in the bowl of a stand mixer

Step 2

Whip on medium speed for about a minute until light and fluffy.

Step 3

Add powdered sugar one cup at a time until you've used all of the powdered sugar.

Step 4

Lastly, add the vanilla.

Step 5

Continue to mix on medium-high for two more minutes until light and fluffy similar to a whipped cream consistency

Step 6

Check consistency - if too soft add a little more powder sugar. If too stiff add a tbsp or more of whipping cream to lighten it up.

Step 7

The more you whip, the lighter this frosting becomes. However, do not. over-whip, as it can breakdown and curdle.
